After years of having lost this, I was going through my old hard drives and finally found my (incomplete) copy of the very rare TPM Thai-subtitled telecine I picked up shortly after the 'Z' version made the rounds in 1999. I think I first posted about this here:

It appears to have been an EViLiSO VCD distribution, as detailed from an old trade list:

Here's a few screen shots, cropped in VLC to 16:9. Sadly, I only have the beginning and opening shot from the first half, and part of the pod race to the part where Boss Nass makes Jar Jar general from the second half:

Above, you can see scratches on the frame...this is immediately followed by jump cut where the film was spliced.

This frame above exhibits an interesting artifact.

This scene bootleg is out there in its complete form, somewhere. I was never able to get the whole thing because the FTP site went down before my days-long download could complete back in 1999. The historical value of this 100% theatrical copy is priceless.
